The sky was cloudy, with a light breeze blowing the grey clouds around when I started out on my daily walk today.

I walked around the outskirts of the local golf club. My lovely wife Margaret, drove the Kuga to the golf club and dropped me off before making her way to the gym at the leisure centre.

Two gulls were drifting around in the sky and a couple of jackdaws were pecking on the green grass when I began.

A lady walking a cross-bred, poodle-type dog passed me along the way.

I photographed a clump of pink sorrel growing along the borders simply because I couldn’t remember the name of this plant, and I knew Google Lens would identify it.

  I left the golf course and walked across to the nearby clifftop where I stopped and looked out to sea and the beach below.

The tide was out, revealing a large expanse of damp sand. A couple of men were far out at the water’s edge digging for lugworms to be used as bait by anglers.

 I noticed a large patch of sea aster flowers thriving on the cliffside, and several people were exercising their impressive dogs on the beach. I photographed a golden retriever, a German shepherd, and an Icelandic sheep dog, all freely chasing around on the beach.

A friendly, fearless jackdaw perched on a railing in front of me as I was looking out to sea.

I walked along the clifftop path where I noticed some beautiful sea thrift flowers growing along the side of the pathway among the remainder of the mallow and other summer flowering plants.
